[A sharp, scratchy female voice comes over the network, spitting her words like bullets.]
Where does the solidness of the objects come from when you turn on a spawner? How does it convert electrical energy into bread, or cloth, or gold? Is there a limit to how much of a certain material you can tell it to conjure?
It's all well and good to have spawners in every fucking color of the rainbow, but my world has too much power and not enough food. One of these could change the entire economy. Bring the bottom closer to the top.
And don't get any sly damned ideas. I saw it first. Just answer the questions.
[Private, also, to Braska.]
I've seen you over the network. What happens to the dead when they aren't Sent?

Do they pass for human, if they don't become corrupted?
[private]
Yes, they do. They bleed, eat, and sleep just like any other person.

It's... difficult to explain. In Spira, pyreflies are in everything. Some might argue that pyreflies are everything, for when we die, should our souls move on to the Farplane, then even our bodies become pyreflies. They look like... lights, little flying lights, leaving behind a trail of colors. Quite beautiful. But they are so much more than that. They are the... proof of life. They are life energy. Mages and summoners manipulate them in order to cast spells and give aeons form.
I suppose, then, that if the Unsent was previously a mage or a summoner, then it might be easier than usual to create their form with the pyreflies. But the strength of will comes in maintaining your sense of self, and in resisting the pull of the Farplane.
